Nice work with the prefab. There are some things I'd do differently with it but you've certainly managed to recreate the generic army truck very well. You just need to get that thing some suitable textures! ![]()
Maze,
Thanks. I'm happy you like it. I've been considering ways to make it look more realistic without changing the look. Maybe even making it better, still thinking.
Yak,
I built the truck from brushes by myself. Id be happy to give anyone that wants the vmf file.. hell... go download it if you want.

If anyone would really like to use it in a map I have a version of it before I turned the whole thing into a detail brush so it would still be changeable as far as shape.

Where'd you get that cargo truck, and is it a model or a prefab? It looks rather interesting and I'd like a closer look...

Leave the weird shaped hole the same. It's awesome-looking-ness outweighs its unrealistic-ness. [addsig]
Also, judging from the ceiling thickness from those holes in screen1, it looks like your ceilnging is wafer thin. Make it thicker? ![]()
Yeah, yer right.. the Cresent shape in the ceiling doesn't look well supported. I'm not sure how to go about making it look supported and real.
Also, I didn't like the emptyness of the Mosque (that's what it's supposed to be) but was unsure what to put in there to fill up some space. From all the mosques I've seen where there's a bunch of guys on their knees praying there's always huge open spaces. It would be a bit more interesting with some stuff in there ... just not sure what.
And thanks for the comments! I've been checking back here every 30 minutes or so after I've posted my map to see what people say hehehehe

Hmm.. That extremely obscure (yet interesting) shaped hole in the ceiling in Pic1 looks like somthing that is just begging to collapse. Consider putting some supports underneath it to make it look safer. I also feel that the floor in Screen1 is kinda.. hmm, flat. Maybe something like a "sunken living room" perhaps?
